I feel it's a fairly solid car - only thing is it looks a bit puffy at the front, the engine is bit noise and when turning the stock suspension are too good!

I feel it's a fairly solid car - only thing is it looks a bit puffy at the front, the engine is bit noise and when turning the stock suspension are too good!
Integra VTi-R 1994 188,000km
from most relevant to least relevant
1. Only a 4-seater. I know the rear space is tiny for most but still should throw in a 5th seat belt, it can still fit 3 skinny girls in the back
2. Rear seat access -front seat maneuverability, once the front seat back rest is swung forward, the whole seat doesn't push forward in one sequence, you have to pull the front lever to push it forward. Very annoying.
3. No cruise control
4. Dash/cluster lighting not bright enough
5. Awkward wiper controls, no adjustable intermittent wiping, doesn't wipe when washer is used
6. Location of fuel filler (should be drivers side)
7. Antenna noise
8. Awkward fan/heater controls
9. Key in loud beeper sound
10. Oil filter accessibility
11. 4-stud wheels
12. Tiny glovebox for a non passenger airbag model
But apart from these minor negatives, most of them related to design/ergonomics, the car is awesome, quality built, excellent performance even at 13 years old.
DC5
1. automatic
2. it hates speedhumps, my bum gets gets airbourne at any speed
3. a spiderweb magnet
4. feels like one pebble on the road will make my car flip over on freeways
5. uphill battles, acceleration: -30km/h
6. its got good brakes... we all know this, but passengers dont, scaring the snot out of them everytime >.>
1. Recaros wear out (on the base edge).
2. Gotta be very careful of where I park.
3. Scrapage :(
4. It's black so I'm garanteed it'll be dirty.
5. Alot of rattles and creaking.. but thats part of the charm eh?
6. Could still do with more power.
7. Turning circle really does suck. But thats due to the LSD, so I'm ok with that.
8. Why isn't my LEFT vent CF? The bloody right is!
9. Everytime I wash the car due to lack or poor sealing my engine bay gets abit wet!
10. Flawed A pillar/Roof design, water gets in when i open the windows if the cars wet or if I use the washer!@#

dislike. no JDM k20a
a) Window rattles on the driver side door when closing
b) Door trims on the older DC2/4 models tend be creased easily
c) Antenna looks shiet house - looks like an RC car when up :p
i dont like my round lights..
looks like shit..
i want jdm front =]
DC2R: Dislike how there is no fake carbon fibre around the left aircon vent! hehehe sooo tacky
I dislike how the exhaust is a good inch lower than it needs to be making my stock height car bottom out on every thing.
No variable intermittent wipers.
Aircon don't work.
Still haven't painted the bloody thing.
i only have dramas with rwd :P
very good cars...
i think some of the ways they do things like the hoses or intake or what ever could b more mechanic friendly but most of it is really good to work on
i changed a clutch the other week and was good
im goin for a turbo i duno how itll go...
